Stand up and take a bow you big, burly Fijian rugby team. Yesterday, during a flight from Nadi to Brisbane, a woman fell ill, causing a mid flight emergency. When the pilots informed the passengers, the world’s top Rugby Sevens side jumped into action. The Fijian team doctor and coach provided medical assistance to the distressed woman as she fell in and out of consciousness. Meanwhile, the players, seeing the drama unfold and realising that the air hostesses were struggling to serve lunch and deal with the drama did something extraordinary, they all got up and help serve the lunches to the passengers. Oh and wait for it loons, they also helped clean up the trays and mess afterwards.

With a kitty crisis in New Zealand, SPCA and Uber are joining forces to offer a Friday “kitten in your office” to companies around Wellington . For $30 you can have a little feline delivered to your office and let loose around your work space. The 15 minute visit is designed to inspire people to adopt a pet. When the idea was first tested in the USA over 300 kittens were adopted. Hmm, what could possibly go wrong?

When police received reports that a man was heard shouting ‘I’m going to kill you, you’re dead! Die, die’ followed by the haunting screams of a woman, and the sound of furniture being thrown, they sped to the scene. When they arrived, an out of breath, flushed face man answered the door. They soon discovered that the commotion was not a domestic violence incident at all but a single man trying to kill a spider. Despite telling the bewildered police it was a “really big one”, they asked to check the apartment to be sure and found 1 very dead spider and 1 empty can of mortein. OK loons, you are probably wondering about the woman screaming? Hmm, well he told police ‘Yeah sorry that was me, I really, really hate spiders.’

Thank you John Howard for your forward thinking. Today NSW banned the possession of blueprints for 3D printed guns. This is the first and hopefully not the last to do so. The penalty for violating this law has been set at 14 years in prison.
